Acunetix is an end-to-end web security scanner that offers a 360 view of an organization’s security. It integrates with popular WAFs to automatically create appropriate Web Application Firewall rules to protect web applications against attacks targeting vulnerabilities that the scanner finds. This allows customers to temporarily prevent exploitation of high-severity vulnerabilities until they are able to fix them. Furthermore, Acunetix can export scan data to the popular Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) such as Imperva F5 and FortiWeb.
